Recruiting Notebook: Several recruits visit Miami on Saturday

Several prospects visited Miami from near and far on Tuesday. Here's a rundown of the players that entered in and out of the facility.
DJ Pickett spent three days in Miami, touring the facility and getting acquainted with new DB coach Chevis Jackson. Miami seems like they will definitely be in this race to the very end. The fact that Booker Pickett is a signee and was with him while he was on campus is certainly a positive sign. LSU seems like the other team to watch the most here, but Miami is in a great spot.

Talented offensive lineman Cortez Smith continues to be impressed with Miami. This seems like a Georgia/Miami battle. Georgia may have the edge with proximity. Miami seems to check every other box for him.

Miami still prioritizes Byron Louis, but the local back will continue to experience the recruiting process fully. The issue here is that Miami is also looking at other running backs and is looking to confirm which back will indeed be the back to pair with Girard Pringle. Miami is looking to confirm that spot sooner rather than later.

Iose Epenesa, who has an official visit set with Miami, said he doesn't know if Miami checked any boxes for him during the visit. He is still very open with his process, but the possibility of being coached by Jason Taylor could be a factor down the line. He will likely make a commitment in the latter part of the football season with Missouri, Illinois, Oregon, Michigan, Iowa, and Texas all in the mix.

Jaden Wilkerson is an impressive-looking, under-the-radar prospect who said the recruitment from Miami is heavy, and Cristobal is expressing that they want him. Miami, Syracuse, and UCF are the unofficial top three for Wilkerson. Maryland will also get an unofficial visit.

Justin Hill likes the small campus feel of Miami and said the communication is constant. and called Jason Taylor the GOAT when it comes to the edge position. He called Miami "genuine" in their recruiting approach. Ohio State, USC, Oregon, Alabama, Penn State, and Miami are the schools recruiting Hill at a high level.
Story coming soon.

Miami did well landing three-star running back Girard Pringle, with whom Matt Merritt had long been establishing a relationship while at USF. Officially, it's Merritt's first commitment, so it will be interesting to see how he translates to the college game.

Miami made it clear that Jaelyne Matthews is the top offensive lineman on its board. Physically, he looked the part as his legs looked like giant sequoia trees. I think Miami can seal the deal here after his official visit to Miami, but Georgia and Tennessee will have a big say in where he chooses to go.
